I saved the file to my home directory, but when I use the terminal utility and type chmod +x setJDK it cannot find the file. Obviously, I put the file in the wrong place or I'm doing something wrong in the terminal utility (my first time to use). I put the file in my home folder named nancy. Isn't that correct? What am I doing wrong? I am having trouble getting this to work. I saved the file to my home directory, but when I use the terminal utility and type chmod +x setJDK it cannot find the file.

I have not yet seemed to get CF up and running even after running the script given... I currntly have JRE 1.6 but used ./setJDK 1.4.2 in order to TRY to get CF to work... The bloody thing still hangs when I try to load ./jrun -start deafult & Meaning I want to run the default server in order to get cfusion to run, cf residing under the servers/cfusion path within {JRUN_HOME}/servers/ Does the 1.4.2 need to be set prior to installing? I'm running 10.4.8 on PPC thanks Dudes… I have not yet seemed to get CF up and running even after running the script given… I currntly have JRE 1.6 but used ./setJDK 1.4.2 in order to TRY to get CF to work…

Does the 1.4.2 need to be set prior to installing?

I’m running 10.4.8 on PPC

thanks

TextEdit didn't work too well for me but textwrangler did the trick. Again, this worked perfectly so thanks a ton. Dude, MANY thanks for this!

Try setting the following system property (java.args=) in {JRun4_RootDir}/lib/jvm.config -Djmx.invoke.getters=true I haven't looked to see what (if anything) will not work, but at least JRun (& CFMX) start up...

I noticed a lot of crashes following the Java update, but I couldn't find anyone else having the problem! Thanks for documenting this.

I recopied it once it turned into a unix file(a black box),and ran everything you said, and it now runs the java 1.4.09 :) This did not allow be to install cfmx, and so I think there are bigger issues going on. Thanks so much, and I am sorry to write twice to you. John Hi Simon,

I tried: Macintosh-3:~ johnbarrett$ ./setJDK 1.4.2 ./setJDK: line 1: {rtf1macansicpg10000cocoartf824cocoasubrtf330: command not found ./setJDK: line 2: syntax error near unexpected token `}' ./setJDK: line 2: `{fonttblf0fswissfcharset77 Helvetica;}' Is ther a way to get rid of these errors, and to start the JVM 1.42? I think this is why I can't install the Coldfusion & JRun. Thanks so much, John Barrett Hi,
I could not install coldfusion, becasue of this issue(I think).I can’t access the cf admin!

I tried:
Macintosh-3:~ johnbarrett$ ./setJDK 1.4.2
./setJDK: line 1: {rtf1macansicpg10000cocoartf824cocoasubrtf330: command not found
./setJDK: line 2: syntax error near unexpected token `}’
./setJDK: line 2: `{fonttblf0fswissfcharset77 Helvetica;}’

Is ther a way to get rid of these errors, and to start the JVM 1.42?
I think this is why I can’t install the Coldfusion & JRun.

Thanks so much,

The difference, I think, is that I'm using TomCat. I never really liked JRun so I've been downloading the installers from Macromedia for "Other" systems and doing a pure Java instal. I have Flex 2 and ColdFusion 7 running perfectly. I also found that, at least for my system (867Mhz), TomCat runs much faster with fewer resources used up.
